TradeUp Brokerage: Stackable Bonuses, Free Stocks, and Maybe Even NVDA!
Published on January 2, 2026, 9:07 PM
TradeUp brokerage is throwing a party for new customers with a bunch of stackable bonuses, and it keeps getting better! If you're looking to move some investments around, listen up. Here's the deal: If you transfer assets from another brokerage to TradeUp (using ACATS), you can snag a 2% cashback bonus (up to $1,000), plus an *additional* 1% match (also up to $1,000) if you keep those assets parked there for a year. And that's not all. Depending on how much you deposit, you'll also get free stocks – up to 5 shares for a $100,000 transfer. Keep an eye out for special affiliate links that might even throw in a share of NVDA (Nvidia stock)! The free stock bonus has evolved too! Now called CRCL shares, the tiers have been sweetened with some high value levels. For example, transferring $50,000 gets you 10 shares and transferring $1 million will get you 100 shares. There's also an IRA version of the deal that gives you a few shares of SGOV on top, but be warned: there's a longer holding period for that bonus. Just remember there's a $50 fee if you decide to transfer *out* your entire account later, and these bonuses are for *new* customers only making their *first* ACAT transfer to TradeUp. But if you're planning a move anyway, this could be a seriously lucrative way to do it!
